No. > what can I enter on telnet prompt ? Nothing - unless you can type SSL binary data :-) What you need is an SSL client: this should do the trick openssl s_client -connect 127.0.0.1:995 The alternative is to telnet to your normal port 110 or 143, and then issue the STLS or STARTTLS command. But at that point, again you have to start a binary SSL exchange, so telnet is useless at that point.
